David Ash misses practice, not ruled out of Ole Miss game

AUSTIN – Texas starting quarterback David Ash did not practice Tuesday but has not been ruled out for Saturday’s game against Mississippi, a UT official said.

Ash, a junior, injured his head and throwing shoulder during the fourth quarter of Saturday’s game at BYU. If he’s unable to play, senior Case McCoy will start in his place.

Ash has completed 39 of 62 passes for 594 yards and six touchdowns with two interceptions this season. McCoy, who’s 7-of-12 for 75 yards, has started six career games, but only one since 2011. That start came last December against Kansas State, who beat the Longhorns, 42-24.
